I have no idea what possessed me but I picked up this beast on ebay at the weekend.

Its ridiculous and I have no need for having a Jeep but its great. Bring on the Snow!

Comments welcome :nerv:
 
Nice, I like the idea of one, especially up there where the weather will get bad in the winter. Whats the tax on one of them, and the mpg?
 
Cheers, weather does get bad but not enough to justify a Jeep. Its cool, thats my excuse haha

mpg has been between 25-30 the few days I've been driving it about for. Probably closer to 30 once I get used to it. Tax is pretty much the same as the EK9. £120 for 6 months. Not bad really
 
" Its ridiculous and i have no reason for having a Jeep " Lmao man thats hilarious..

I saw this on Facebook and honestly didn't know if it was a joke or not.

Always wanted a Cherokee though good buy i say its cool a fook.

That top picture, without the plate, could easily pass off as a photo taken in the rockies
 
Hahaha Topher, i'm still think its a joke aswell. I'm hoping we get some bad snow to justify the "ridiculousness" of it. Always fancied one so thought I'd go for one.

Started off looking for a cheap winter run about, possibly a micra or fiesta.... Ended up with a Cherokee.

I love it already, such a comfy place to sit and quite high ground clearance for a small'ish jeep.
 
haha! sounded like a spontaneous decision to buy that just out of utter randomness! love it! also your 9 needs washed! :p

Cheers Ally. Been round at Dans then? It is pretty filthy at the moment. Will get the 9 cleaned and looked after before putting it away for winter.

have fun fixing it

Not a good buy Sammy? Its low mileage with a thorough service history. Seems to run very smoothly and all the electrics are perfect. All the reviews I have read have suggested that they are reliable cars.

Have you seen many with problems? Anything to look out for?
 
Been tempted to drive in through anyones gardens or random fields yet ? I was so tempted when i had a go in my mates terrano
 
that is wicked martin looks like a beast do some off road missions in it :nice::nice:.

Haha been very tempted but had to resist. Instead of avoiding potholes and puddles I know aim for them. Very enjoyable to bash about it.

Cheers Usy, will need to take it for some off roading at some point. Test it out.
 
Yeah man was meant to go pick up the shell on Sunday with dan but he was unwell so went with one of his workers, Iain. Haha yeah no better place to store it :D

Yup its like a museum down there.

Brilliant! Can pick these up sooo cheap now. Is it LPG ?


Yeah was suprised at how cheap they were going for. Not LPG just a 2.5 Diesel. LPG would be cool though
 
This needs spinners and you need to invest in a puffa and an AK mert .
